In a case-control study the proportion of trans
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) glycosylation modulates antibody activity and represents a major source of heterogeneity within antibody preparations. Depending on their glycosylation pattern, individual IgG glycovariants present in recombinant antibody preparations may trigger effects ranging from enhanced pro-inflammatory activity to increased anti-inflammatory activity. In contrast, reduction of IgG gly

The dendritic cell (DC) lineage encompasses a diverse population of cells with unique subtype-specific functions. In peripheral blood, four DC subsets have been identified based on their distinct expression of CD1c, CD141, CD16, and CD123, and these subpopulations exhibit functional properties in immune responses. However, their respective roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, are unclear.
The way in which academic studies are conducted may vary considerably from one country to another. At times it may be difficult to understand what is expected of you when you start studying in Sweden with only a few lectures, a great deal of individual responsibility and plenty of group work. Perhaps you are not used to this and it may take time to adapt to everything new. Shortcuts to page conten
Att insjukna i en reumatisk ledsjukdom innebär betydande förändringar i livet, särskilt när det sker under barndomen eller ungdomen. Vår forskning omfattar flera reumatiska och inflammatoriska tillstånd, med särskilt fokus på juvenil idiopatisk artrit (JIA), men även andra sjukdomar som Kawasakis sjukdom och MIS-C (hyperinflammation efter COVID-19-infektion). Vi bedriver både klinisk- och laboratoBeing diagnosed with a rheumatic disease entails significant life changes, especially when it occurs during childhood or adolescence. Our research encompasses several rheumatic and inflammatory conditions, with a particular focus on juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), but also other diseases such as Kawasaki's disease and MIS-C (hyperinflammation following COVID-19 infection). We conduct both cli
